The answer is that x equals 15
Let x,y be the two numbers.
Given that one number is 8 greater than another.
Let x be the smaller number ans y be the greater number.
That is y=x+8. Let this be the first equation.
And also given that product of the two numbers is 84.
That is x × y = 84, let us plugin y=x+8 here.
x × (x+8) = 84
x²+ 8x -84 = 0.
x²+12x-4x-84 = 0
x(x+12)-4(x+12) =0
(x-4)(x+12)=0
That is x= 4 or -12.
<h3>If x=4 , y= 4+ 8 = 12</h3>
<h3>If x= -12, y= -12+8 = -4 </h3>
Hence two positive numbers corresponding to given conditions are 4,12.
And two negative numbers corresponding to given conditions are -12,-4.

Answer:
4 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
If the circumference of the circular garden =63 yards
Circumference of a Circle =2πr=πd (d=diameter)
Therefore:
πd= 63
diameter of the circular garden =63/3.14=20 yards
If he digs at a rate of 5 yards per hour, the time required to dig across the garden will be:
20 yards/5 yard per hours = 4 hours
It will take him 4 hours to dig across the circular garden.
